Ju Pangola himself was a famous 16th-century Muslim scholar, teacher, and figurehead of Gorontalo.

With qualitative analysis, this study seeks to produce descriptive data, a systematic, factual and accurate picture of the facts, the characteristics and the relationship between the observed phenomena. The results of this study revealed that the pilgrim's perception of Ju Pangola's tomb is as follows; first, that the tomb is capable of providing survival and survival. Secondly, that Ju Pangola is not an ordinary person but a guardian who can mediate their prayers to Allah Almighty.
